Thirteen Writing Blessings
  1. I have Hero Material who reads everything I write and helps me with line edits.
  2. I signed with a great agent who gives me fantastic advice.
  3. I have a sharp-eyed editor who helped me improve my writing.
  4. I have a solid group of beta-readers.
  5. My debut novel is coming out next month from Samhain under my other pen name Angelle Trieste.
  6. My mom told me I was too smart to be a writer when I first started writing, but now she's very supportive.
  7. My dad and brother are totally behind me 100%.
  8. Hero Material's mother and sister are very interested in my writing.
  9. They're interested enough to pay money to read my books.
  10. I make enough money working part-time to support myself.
  11. My friends and former roommate sent me messages, congratulating me on my debut ebook and getting an agent.
  12. Even my cousins in Korea said they were interested in reading my books, provided that they're translated into Korean.
  13. My chief councilor May keeps me grounded.

    Great minds think alike…
    They’re interested enough to pay money to read my books.

    That’s a sign of a true support system. When I gave my mother a copy of my book she handed me money for it. Of course, when I told her Dad didn’t pay for his copy her non-answer was more than enough for me to understand.
